Wheel with it:doh:

You should have seen me 100yds out of my office parking lot. Apparently tieing down with 3 straps is not adequate for Yuletide Crusin'.

Ask me how I know;)

Hell no I'm not making PBR, I wouldnt waste my time with that. Its a cream ale, like the ones made by liberty and I think RJ Rockers has one. Dont know how much the vanilla I added will come through probably none but had to try. I think it will be like 4.5% alc when its done (I definitely took the reading wrong JP). Should be ready around MLK give or take I think.
 
I've brewed a lot of batches in my time. If you like Stouts, I have a Russian Imperial Stout recipe that will blow the doors off. Let me know.
 
Send it to me in a PM, might be something to take on down the road. Already planned on doing an IPA next though. I have some serious fermentation going on this morning. :bounce:

Will do. Can't go wrong with an IPA either.

I need to start again... been a couple years.
 
I do now. You know the name or can you give me a better description of location. I might like the check that out next time I'm up that way.
 
Thomas Creek, I didnt know they had a supplies store. I have had their beer on a few occasions though.

may have to travel to pick up supplies?

One suggestion if you haven't already... get yourself a bunch of cases of 25oz bottles. Makes the process much quicker.

I'm traveling this weekend, but maybe over the holidays I'll cook up a batch.

My dad brewed when I was a kid, back before it was legal. All natural brewing. I have no idea where he got the supplies. It wasn't as easy as it is now. He'd brew some mean rootbeer in the early days.

I was the "capper" guy with the old style cappers that were about the size of a highlift and looked a lot like one too.
 
Shoot you ought to be able to find a dozen stores in the Atl area and I'm sure one of them will have a hot lady too. I am going with the 32oz self capping bottle. The ones with the Grolsch style stopper. Good for about 4-6 uses before you have to change the little gaskets on them. As for supplies there are a million places online now.
 
Sat in meetings ALL day long in Boston.
 
That's good stuff Richard, can't wait to hear how it comes out.

I made a few batches when I was in college.

The first one tasted horrible but the alcohol percentage was sky high. Good for the late night rowdies who had numb tongues and didn't care about taste. :D

My last batch was pretty dialed in taste wise and was pretty popular in the frat house.

Hmmm. That's something I could easily get back into...

Must...resist...another...hobby...
